  • Now today I'm in Italy with my grandma and I want to show you, well she's going to pretty much show you how to make sausage and lentils, which is just a staple here, which is mostly eaten on New Years because it's,
  • You know, they say that lentils are known to give you good luck throughout the year, so this recipe is obviously going to be so simple and easy.
  • The ingredients you're going to need are some cooked brown lentils, she's already boiled these until tender, it'll take about an hour or so depending on the package, just to read the instructions, some sausage that's been removed from the casing,
  • She uses pork sausage but if you want to make this leaner, you could use a turkey or a chicken sausage, it's totally up to you, some tomatoes, these are just canned chopped tomatoes that she, well they were in a can that she takes them out and puts them in her own jar,
  • Basil, olive oil, a little bit of garlic and salt and that's pretty much it.
  • Okay, now we're going to go to the stove, get the olive oil nice and hot and we'll meet you there.
  • She preheated olive oil and garlic over about medium-high heat and now she's just adding the sausage that the casing has been removed and then she's going to take her wooden spoon and kind of mash it up and cut it in as small as she possibly can because you want this to run through your entire dish,
  • I'll show you.
  • And now she's going to want, you know, you're going to want this to cook pretty much all the way but just make sure that you break it up as much as you possibly can and once it's all the way cooked, I will show you what it looks like.
  • And once the sausage is pretty much fully cooked through, add in some chopped canned tomatoes.
  • You could also put fresh tomatoes if you didn't want to use canned, you could put like maybe some chopped up cherry tomatoes, that would be really lovely too.
  • You might have to add maybe a splash of water just to give you some sauce.
  • After five minutes, you want to let this cook for five minutes just for the tomato sauce to reduce a bit and then we'll add in the lentils.
  • Once the tomatoes have reduced a bit, now she's going to add in some of the cooked lentils And liquid and all.
  • Now if you wanted to, because I'm well aware that she put quite a bit of oil in there to cook the sausage and then left it there, if you wanted to, you could absolutely use less oil and drain it out if you want to and you guys know I do that whenever I cook with sausage,
  • That's why I always try to use a leaner sausage because I don't like all the fat.
  • Now, if you wanted to use a leaner meat and if you wanted to take out all the oil, you absolutely could.
  • She leaves it in and I have to tell you, it does taste quite amazing and that's why I only eat it this way when I come here.
  • But now...
  • Ten minutes, let this simmer for about ten minutes.
  • Yeah, let this cook for about ten minutes.
  • The lentils are already cooked, she just boiled them in some water without any salt, you never want to add salt anytime you cook dried beans or dried lentils until they're completely cooked because that way the skins don't harden on the lentils,
  • That way if you put salt in the beginning, the lentils will never soften.
  • So let this cook for ten minutes and then we'll show you what it looks like when it's done.
  • This is ready.
  • She seasoned it with a little bit of salt but do taste it before you season it because sausage can be quite salty.
  • Amogat, aspetta, let's put in some herbs, just a mixture of basil and parsley.
  • Just a little bit chopped up, smells so, so good.
  • If you wanted to, you could use this over rice or you could add a handful of rice in it if you wanted to, or little small things of pasta, but we like it just like this.
  • And then use a lot of bread to soup it up.
  • I want to just taste a little bit of it, she said no, make a big plate.
  • I'm going to give this a taste.
  • It's really hot but incredibly delicious.
  • We do hope you give this recipe a try.
  • We're going to sit down to eat lunch because we're starving.
